Fantasy Quiz of the Day: The Best Playoff Fantasy Games of the Last Decade
Today’s Fantasy Quiz of the Day comes with a freebie: In this year’s Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs, the Bills lost to the Chiefs 42-36 in overtime, but they also famously had one player – Gabriel Davis – go absolutely nuts in the game. Davis had 8 catches for 201 yards and 4 touchdowns […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: The Active Fantasy Leaders in the Playoffs
It shouldn’t come as any surprise to you that Tom Brady has the most career fantasy points in the postseason of any active player. In fact, he (comfortably!) has the most of any player of all time. (That’s a freebie for today’s quiz.) But as you go down the list at each position, some of […]

Best Offseason Moves for Fantasy Football in 2022
The 2022 NFL offseason has been unlike any we’ve had in recent years. The QB movement alone was arguably the most insane we’ve ever seen — and certainly within the last decade.  But now that we’ve made it through free agency and the draft, where is the dust settling?

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: The Most Fantasy-Relevant Rosters in 2021
Last year, only three members of the Houston Texans – Davis Mills, Brandin Cooks and Rex Burkhead – reached 100 PPR points on the season. Not coincidentally, the Texans were possibly the least fantasy-relevant team in the NFL in 2021. In other words, it’s not a perfect proxy, but you could argue that the more […]

Worst Fantasy Football Landing Spots in the NFL Draft
At the end of the day, talent should almost always trump landing spot in dynasty fantasy football. But that doesn’t mean landing spots should be viewed as a complete afterthought. Rookies who enter the league with favorable situations not only have a better chance to produce right out of the gates, but they’re also provided […]

Josh Larky’s Fantasy Football Rookie Tiers
Dynasty rookie draft season is officially underway.  These are the exact rankings I’m using across my various dynasty leagues while in the draft room.   While these rankings are technically for Superflex, in a 1QB dynasty league, you’re best off avoiding this QB class entirely, so just X out the QBs from these rankings.  If […]

Best Fantasy Football Landing Spots in the NFL Draft
Let’s get it out of the way early: 2022 was most definitely not the sexiest crop of rookies, nor the most glamorous of landing spots for many top players.

The draft has come and gone, and now the fantasy football community can shift its focus entirely to the regular season … well, almost.
